On Friday, February 18th 3rd Grade students at Spring Lake Elementary participated in a School Spelling Bee. The week before each class had a class spelling bee to choose three finalist from each class. Students braved the stage and spelled over 200 words before narrowing it down to the final three. Pictures are the winners. Addisyn Hendrickson (second), Jacob Scott (first), and Savannah Higley(third). Congratulations to all who participated and a special thanks to our sponsors Zions Bank of Payson and the Spanish Fork Rotary Club.

Fifth grade students were involved all day February 9th with “Reaction Time”. Each class spent 30 minutes in a hands on learning lab after a grade level assembly. “The Reaction Time program covers Standard I of the fifth-grade science core—matter, physical changes, and chemical reactions. During the lab, students design and perform chemistry experiments under the direction of a Discovery Gateway science outreach instructor. Discovery Gateway also provides teachers with preparatory packets, follow-up materials, and science equipment to continue scientific learning in the classroom.”
